Division 4

Flames defeated Dragonflies 60-2

Workies Flames were the more dominant team in this game, showing their experience in defence and attack.

Strong all round play by Flames through the centre court frustrated Dragonflies efforts, with great mid court effort from Callie and Faith Capomolla and Shannon O’Regan.

Flames mixed the last quarter up playing in positions that they do not normally play in, with Breanna Kelly showing great shooting skills in her first ever time in GA. Well done Breanna!

Strong defensive effort by Dragonflies Freda Clutterham and Emily Burt kept Flames at bay in the final quarter with only 3 goals from Flames.

Great work through centre court from Dragonflies Kasey Besetimoala and Maggie Muir in fourth quarter but unable to convert to points.

Division 3

Mocking Jays defeated Wang Warriors 39 – 8

Mocking jays and Wang Warriors played a strong game of netball against each other. Highlights for Mocking Jays was their flow from each end of the court which was fast and well executed. Wang Warriors defence was increasingly targeted against Mocking Jays and their attack improved throughout the game. Mocking Jays shooting was accurate and a strength of their game. Thankyou to Sheree and Karen for umpiring.

Focused to win and right past mistakes the Domestic Darlings had a solid win against Swifts. The attack play of Tracey Parsons, Taren Alexander and Kristy Burgess was very impressive. The defence team of Sheree Elliot and Kell Drengenburg was fantastic making Swifts work hard. “The Donstar” was as usual on fire in GD, showing us her never ending energy levels. Swifts Kimberly Pattison and Paula Dowsett were solid in defence and Jessica Knight proved she was a great all round player, playing in both centre court and attack.
